1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Line from the Heartland and the Crossroads of America. It's 2 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: Tony Kats today. We are still shut down. Everyone wants 3 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: to blame everyone, and I'm told that. 4 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 2: I all of a sudden have to care because people 5 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 2: aren't able to feed their kids. I say to you, 6 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: right now, head over to your local food pantry and 7 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,839 Speaker 2: help feed kids. This is about private charity. This isn't 8 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: about public assistance. The more I hear about public assistance, 9 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 2: the more you clearly understand that this has to come 10 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: to an earth shattering end. This was a story, a 11 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: legit story that aired. 12 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 3: On local television. The first thing I did was Grandma 13 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 3: calling a call out of and I'm hired to see 14 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 3: her road dollars. My just went into my throat. 15 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 4: Magiottagun has been a SNAP recipient for more than three decades. 16 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 4: Even with these benefits, she says, she also relies on 17 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 4: food banks to get enough food. 18 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: This is a story out of New Mexico. Did I say, hello, 19 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 2: Tony Tony Kats today? I forget sometimes this woman has 20 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 2: been getting food stamps for years. Only a Democrat would 21 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: think that's a successful program. It's not a successful program. 22 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: It's anything but a successful program. That is thirty years, 23 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: three decades long of absolute dependency. We should not be 24 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: looking that and saying, thank goodness, we have these benefits. 25 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 3: Now. 26 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: I don't think that we should be taking a look 27 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: at the ending of these benefits because of the shutdown 28 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 2: and say, well, that's. 29 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 3: A good pressure point. Not at all. 30 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: There are people who really need help. I want to 31 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 2: give people. I want to give help to people who 32 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 2: really need help. I do think this thing can be 33 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: handled via private charity, but we can't deny that we 34 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: have a fundamental issue here regarding people who are on 35 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 2: these programs and are now squeezed by the dependency of 36 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: those programs, the evil that that is. And still you 37 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: cannot get me to make the statement that I should 38 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 2: get worked up about the shutdown. I think I should 39 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 2: help my fellow man who actually needs the help where 40 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: I can, and I think we all should. But I 41 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 2: absolutely I am not going to listen to the political left 42 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 2: scream to me, look how Republicans are killing children. No, 43 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer is killing children, killing babies. Wait what, Oh, 44 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Only the left could talk like that. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, 45 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer wants babies to starve. Chris van Holland wants 46 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 2: babies to starve. Dick Durbin wants babies to starve. This 47 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: is the way we do it now. Alex Padilla wants 48 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: babies to starve. I don't know why they do. They 49 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: would vote for ending the shutdown, they'd vote for the 50 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: continuing Resolution if they didn't want this, but they don't 51 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 2: vote for it, so they must want it. Is that 52 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: how we play our game, And this is why I 53 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: refuse to get worked up. This is why I refuse 54 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: to engage in that way. I don't mind if the 55 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: political right hits like that. I don't mind if they 56 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: hit Chuck Schumer directly in the mouth with that kind 57 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: of talk, with that kind of rhetoric. I'm old enough 58 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: to remember when they told me that Paul Ryan was 59 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: gonna push Grandma off a cliff. You will learn political 60 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: left that eventually it all comes back. Your biggest argument 61 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 2: is that the political right isn't caving like they're supposed to. 62 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: That's your biggest argument. That's why you think the leverage 63 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: has been better and better and better and better for you. 64 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 2: You think the longer this goes on, the better it 65 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 2: becomes for you. Because you'll get more leverage against the 66 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 2: political right. And what we have seen from conservatives, I'm 67 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: sorry Republicans, is that there are willing to go along 68 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 2: with this. Go ahead, keep going, keep going. We're gonna 69 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 2: keep having our daily press conference with Mike Johnson. We're 70 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 2: gonna keep pushing. Now President Trump with his desire to 71 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: end the filibuster, I mean, that's not helping any He's 72 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: just wrong because as a matter of strategy, he's just wrong. 73 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 3: But this can be solved, and yet it isn't. So 74 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 3: what do we do first? 75 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: I don't get worked up if someone doesn't get a paycheck. 76 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. It's not that I want it, it's that 77 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: I can't do anything about it. My senators have voted 78 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 2: for the continuing Resolution and moving on with my day. 79 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 2: I cannot help the air traffic controller. I cannot help 80 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 2: the member of the military or anybody else who isn't 81 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 2: getting a paycheck. I can give food to my local 82 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 2: food pantry, and I will. 83 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 3: That's already been arranged. 84 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: That is something we all can do because there are 85 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: people who are absolutely going to need the help. And 86 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 2: I am not going to say to somebody, well, you 87 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 2: shouldn't take that government job when talking about whether or 88 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: not they. 89 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 3: Can feed their kids. 90 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: That's crazy. I'm not interested in living that life, but 91 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 2: get pressured by the Democratic Party and think that the 92 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: Republican Party should. 93 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 3: Give in because of it. Now, no, no, no, no. 94 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 2: I plan on supporting the position of the Republican Party 95 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 2: on this one because Chuck Schumer needs to lose because 96 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 2: the position that he has put America in is something 97 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: that he should have to deal with the consequences of. 98 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 3: He did this, and savagely Democrats are going along with them. 99 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: Why the heck would you go along with them? 100 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 3: Now, there's a big, big theory that with the. 101 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 2: Elections that are coming up tomorrow, this all ends on Wednesday. 102 00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 2: Somehow this is rallying their base and getting people excited 103 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: for these elections. I'll get into that. I had heard 104 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 2: the same thing about it. They were keeping this going 105 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: on until the No King's rally, right though, Oh so 106 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 2: important to have these no kings. There are no kings. 107 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: If Trump was a king, there wouldn't be a shutdown. 108 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 2: But he's not a king, so there is a shutdown, 109 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 2: only proving that everybody involved with no Kings. 110 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 3: Is a moron. We could say a lot of that. 111 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 2: We can discuss a lot of that about who within 112 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: our government and who who was engaged in support of 113 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 2: nonsense is in all ways a dang fool. I think 114 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: we should we should note those people. And right now 115 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 2: the Democrats are playing the part of the fool. We 116 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: need to continue the subsidies on Obamacare. Well, I guess 117 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 2: Obamacare doesn't save anybody any money. Obamacare doesn't work because 118 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: you need to subsidize it to get people to want it. 119 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: We can say that about a lot of things. Now, 120 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 2: we can say it about government programs. We can say 121 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 2: it about farmers, we can say about a host of things. 122 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 2: Obamacare was supposed to lower costs, and now you need subsidies. 123 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: But Democrats voted to end the subsidies at the end 124 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty five. And now I want to paint 125 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 2: the picture that Republicans are ending the subsidies. No part 126 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: of this is true. And I don't care if Obamacare 127 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: has subsidies or not. I'm the one paying the subsidy. 128 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 2: I don't want to pay the subsidy. 129 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 3: Tony, You're just mean and heartless and children. No no, no, no, no, no, 130 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 3: no no. I don't want anything. 131 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 2: That furthers us down the road of government run healthcare, 132 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: because government run healthcare doesn't work. You know how I 133 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 2: know this government can't figure out how to keep the 134 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 2: government open. What makes anybody think they can run healthcare? 135 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 2: My work here is done. That took all of seven seconds. 136 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go back to my cigar. Hold on, this 137 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 2: is the aging room, Churchill. Here, this is a box 138 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 2: press Maduro easy easy cigar. 139 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 3: You can sometimes find them on sale for like. 140 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 2: Five six dollars a stick. So I'm like, yeah, sure 141 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: for the show, and I'm putting it down all the time. 142 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 2: Works great. See how easy that is. You tell me 143 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: that these things are important and government needs to take 144 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 2: hold of this, and then you see how government runs. 145 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: You're like, why would you let government take care of 146 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 3: your healthcare? 147 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: Anyone who considers government controlling their healthcare hopes to die. 148 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 3: How is that a false statement? It's just factual as 149 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 3: can be. 150 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: Let Bertie Sanders try and explain it again, why we 151 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 2: need government run healthcare. 152 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 3: He can't, he won't. 153 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: He'll just talk about millionaires and billionaires like an absolute freak. 154 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 3: Every answer is million and billionaires. 155 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 2: No, no way, It was millionaires until he became a millionaire 156 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:09,119 Speaker 2: and now it's just billionaires. Gosh, that's convenient. How convenient 157 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: is it of this judge? If you check out the 158 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 2: show sheet over at Tony Katz dot com, this federal 159 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 2: judge that says, hey, you have to fund Snap benefits, 160 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 2: right Snap the food stamps. A federal judge in Rhode 161 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 2: Island made this decision ordering the Trump administration to continue 162 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 2: providing Snap food benefits. How does that work? The money's 163 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 2: not there, Well, you have to get the money. The 164 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 2: executive branch has nothing to do with spending. They can't 165 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 2: authorize funds. The funding comes from Congress. How in the 166 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 2: world does this happen? How in the world do you 167 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: force them to fund the program or spend them money? 168 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 3: And what makes a judge think they can do this? 169 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: Because if indeed you can order Trump to fund Snap benefits, 170 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 2: why can't you just order Democrats to go over the 171 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: continuing resolution? I mean, if we're living in just the 172 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 2: world's of pure fantasy. There's an argument that there is 173 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 2: a contingency fund. The issue is is that the program 174 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: costs the United States taxpayer nine billion dollars a month, 175 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 2: and the contingency fund only has five billion dollars in it. 176 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 2: You can't partially fund these things, so therefore we can't 177 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 2: fund it. 178 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,239 Speaker 3: And now what Trump is saying. 179 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 2: Is, hey, would you go back to the courts, He's 180 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 2: telling his lawyers and how are we supposed to implement this? Again, 181 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: proving he's not a king going to the courts and saying, 182 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 2: how in. 183 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 3: The world can you expect us to do this? 184 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 2: Irrationality on all sides, every side, everywhere, all the time. 185 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 3: And this same government thinks they can run healthcare. Fantastic. 186 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: No, here we are, day thirty four of a shutdown, 187 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 2: and I continue to remind you not to get worked up. 188 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 2: But I say that, and by the way, I would 189 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: remind you to keep supporting the political right in this 190 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 2: support the Republicans. 191 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: This is on Chuck Schumer. Just vote for the. 192 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 2: Continuing resolution because subsidies for Obamacare is a non starter, 193 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 2: which I'm going to lose that fight, by the way, 194 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 2: because I guarantee you Trump is absolutely going. 195 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: To do it. He's going to do it. But when it. 196 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: Comes to supporting our neighbors who, because of this shutdown 197 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 2: or any other issue, are having a hard time and 198 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: need to feed their kids, your local food pantry. Guys, 199 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 2: Charity is a good thing, and if you are financially able, 200 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 2: I encourage you to give Today. 201 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 3: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today. 202 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 2: So a couple of people have asked, what's your take 203 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 2: on Harvard And if you didn't hear, there was a 204 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 2: weekend explosion at Harvard University, Harvard Medical School, suspects on 205 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 2: the run. 206 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 3: As I have the story, the last I have from Fox. 207 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 2: News happened in the early morning hours on Saturday. 208 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 3: Is what happened. 209 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: There two mass suspects seen fleeing from the building. So 210 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: I don't have an answer yet as to who or why. 211 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 2: I have photos of suspects. I have thoughts on what 212 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: I think, but I don't have enough. 213 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 3: Data yet. 214 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 2: Now you might say to me, oh, Tony, you could 215 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 2: say it. No, No, I think other people might say 216 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,959 Speaker 2: things me. I don't ever mind waiting when it comes 217 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 2: to what took place. 218 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: In Dearborn, Oh don't worry. 219 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 2: I got things to say, the stabbing in the United Kingdom. 220 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 2: I've got things to say, and of course President Trump's 221 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 2: standing up for Christians. 222 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 3: I have real things to say. I will get to that. 223 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 3: Keep it right here. But no I wanted. 224 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 2: To talk about the elections that are happening tomorrow. There's 225 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 2: a bunch of things going on. First, if you take 226 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: a look at the two big races for governor, New 227 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 2: Jersey gubernatorial race Virginia's governor. 228 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 3: Race, and in those races in. 229 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 2: Virginia, it drives me nuts that Span Burger, this Democrat 230 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: is lead. Republican wins some earl sears the current lieutenant 231 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: governor by twelve points, very. 232 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 3: Very disheartening. 233 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: It is disheartening that the Democrat for Attorney General, Jay Jones, 234 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 2: who set in text messages he wants to kill Republicans 235 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 2: and their kids, is still showing a two point lead 236 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 2: against the incumbent. 237 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: That's the insanity of the position. 238 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 2: Of voting for a guy who said out loud text message, 239 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 2: but still I want. 240 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 3: To kill the Republican leader of the House and kill 241 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 3: his children. 242 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 2: No one, no Democrat, feels the need to say nope, 243 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: that's wrong. Spanberger won't denounce. No, they don't denounce, and 244 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: they get rewarded. And there's a lesson in this for Republicans. 245 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 2: Do not ever allow them to dictate how we do 246 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 2: anything now us policing our own If you will like 247 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: these morons with the stupid text chain about Hitler this 248 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: and racism that. Yeah, yeah, those guys are gonna be 249 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 2: out of jobs. I didn't say we shouldn't have a 250 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: standard at all. I just won't listen to a standard 251 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: from those losers who are okay with voting for somebody 252 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 2: who wants to kill kids. The New Jersey governor's race 253 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 2: shows the Democrat Mickey Cheryl. I think it's Mickey might 254 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 2: be nunce Mikey edging out the Republican by basically less 255 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 2: than a point, But it's a two point margin of 256 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: error in the Atlas Intel poll. So who knows how 257 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 2: this race is going to turn out. Don't have an 258 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: answer there. And all of this. 259 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 3: In the backdrop of the New York mayor's race. 260 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 2: They're going to elect this communist, Ma'm donnie, They're going 261 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: to elect this garbage, and guys like Hakim Jeffries still 262 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 2: will not endorse. And it's like the future of the 263 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 2: Democratic Party. 264 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,959 Speaker 5: No, I think the future of the Democratic Party is 265 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 5: going to fall as far as we're concerned, relative to 266 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 5: the House Democratic Caucus and members who are doing a 267 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 5: great work all across the country. As it relates to 268 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 5: our need to both take back control of the House, 269 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 5: but in doing so, make sure that we're communicating to 270 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,959 Speaker 5: the American people, like we understand you deserve better than 271 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 5: the country that you have received. Donald Trump and Republicans 272 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 5: have gone way too far and have failed to deliver 273 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 5: anything meaningful for the American. 274 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 3: People except a safe border some peace deals. 275 00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, aside from that, you're right, Hakiem Jeffries and Donnie 276 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: is not the future. Well, that's going to be shocking 277 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 2: to the political left. He says absolutely that Commy is 278 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 2: the future. And I think that's why the reporting that 279 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi may not seek reelection is absolutely accurate. 280 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 3: But we discussed this a couple of weeks ago. She's 281 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 3: not seeking reelection. She's done. She isn't speaker anymore, she 282 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 3: isn't going to work her way back to leadership. She 283 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 3: is older. 284 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 2: It's over. The Nancy Pelosi days will soon be done. 285 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: The problem for the Democratic Party is they have nobody who. 286 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 3: Can rule like that. 287 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 2: They don't have an iron fist anymore. They don't have 288 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 2: anybody who can contain them, which means they move further 289 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 2: and further to the left. 290 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 3: Now, you say to me, that's helpful to the right. 291 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 3: And maybe that will. 292 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: Be even more helpful when you see that Donald Trump 293 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 2: is no longer president and they can't use Trump pat 294 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: for everything. Ah oh oh, that's funny. 295 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 3: Of course they're gonna use Trump paint for everything. 296 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: What you are witnessing now is how the Democratic Party 297 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 2: will operate forever. Whomever the Republican is worse than Hitler, 298 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 2: worse than Trump. 299 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 3: That's it. 300 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 2: That's the modus operandi. As for these races, New York mayor, 301 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 2: New Jersey governor, Virginia governor. Tomorrow's election day, we will 302 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 2: watch and see there. 303 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 3: Will be bourbon. This is Tony Katch today. 304 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 4: Well, what is leverage. Their leverage is to hurt the 305 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 4: American people. 306 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: Right. 307 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 4: They're willing to hurt air travelers, whether they're going to 308 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 4: a funeral, they're going to see family members. Pretty soon, 309 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 4: we're going to have kids coming home from college for 310 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 4: Thanksgiving break. They're willing to endanger poor people who can't 311 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 4: get food stamps. They're willing to risk subsidies in regard 312 00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 4: to health insurance. 313 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 3: They don't care who they hurt. They care about power. 314 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 4: By the way, we had an election a little less 315 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 4: than a year ago and Donald Trump crushed it. He 316 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 4: won the popular vote, he won the seven swing states. 317 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 4: Democrats lost, and so if you want to pass legislation, 318 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 4: you can introduce it, you can debate it, but government 319 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 4: shutdowns trying to garner a leverage is not. 320 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:20,239 Speaker 3: The way that you do it. 321 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 4: Debate it, vote on it, and then come back and 322 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 4: try to win elections. 323 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 3: But they lost. 324 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 4: Donald Trump won, and to now say that you are 325 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 4: going to hurt the American people, so Donald Trump has 326 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 4: to talk to you. 327 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,479 Speaker 3: That's not the way you do business. It is the 328 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 3: way they do business. 329 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 2: And I do remind people Sean Duppy, that's the Transportation secretary. 330 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: I do remind people that Barack Obama said I won, Okay, 331 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 2: you won, so now. 332 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 3: Trump won. That's the way it is. And this is 333 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 3: why when. 334 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 2: It comes to the shutdown, I don't think Republicans can relent. 335 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 3: They should not relent.

What are they gonna do? 350 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 2: They just say, well, Trump beat us on this one. 351 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 2: We care more about American families than Donald Trump do, 352 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 2: and we'll try and trust him this time while we 353 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 2: pressure him to giving more Obamacare subsidies, which Trump is 354 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 2: going to do anyway, and the Democrats take credit for 355 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 2: that's going to be a thing. 356 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 3: I'll call my shot on that. 357 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 2: And then they vote finally to open the government. So 358 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: let's say that's Wednesday. How soon before people get paid? 359 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 3: I mean, it's doesn't just kick right in, right, doesn't. 360 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 3: It doesn't work like that? 361 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: So will be another three, four days, five days, six 362 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 2: days before they get paid the snap benefits? 363 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 3: Does it? 364 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: How does that work? How does that How quickly does 365 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 2: that kick in? I'm just curious to what that response 366 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: time is because all of this gearing up to Thanksgiving. 367 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: Travel is bad stuff. My mother's going to. 368 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 3: Get on a plane. 369 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:05,360 Speaker 2: Those who who may remember her Diane. So Diane used 370 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 2: to be a quasi regular guest on the show, right, 371 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 2: and then my mother got sick. 372 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 3: And I was like, yeah, that was not gonna happen. 373 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 3: My mother is much better now. But there's just in it. 374 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 2: Nothing ain't easy. Wait, No, ain't nothing easy. That's all 375 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 2: there is to it. My mother's good and she's happy, 376 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 2: and life is good and all that jazz. And so 377 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 2: she wants to come up for Thanksgiving. The I'm like, 378 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 2: come up for Thanksgiving? What are the odds that that 379 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 2: flight is going to work out? 380 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 3: Okay? 381 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 2: My mother, your mother, your grandmother, you're this, you're that, 382 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 2: your uncle, your cousin, your brother. 383 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 3: What flights do we think are going to work out? Okay? 384 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 2: So, when the shutdown affects the government worker, it's a thing. 385 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 2: When the government shutdown affects people being able to feed 386 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 2: their kids, it's a real thing. When the government shut 387 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 2: down affects you, it's a problem. That's I mean, I 388 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 2: think I've gone through the proper stages of this, So 389 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 2: I don't know, I do not know what the lack 390 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 2: of funding has meant. 391 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 3: On Friday, eighty percent. 392 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: Just about I should say eighty percent of air traffic 393 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 2: controllers were absent from the New York area facilities, which 394 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 2: means all of those connections in those hubs not working. 395 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 3: You had Austin. 396 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 2: Bergsham International Airport under a groundstop for flights coming from 397 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 2: Dallas Fort Worth due to staffing shortages. 398 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 3: Those delays were over an hour. And if you have. 399 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 2: Any understanding of travel, like if you've ever been on 400 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 2: a plane before, one delay begets another delay, begets another delay, 401 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 2: and down the line and it gets worse as the 402 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 2: day continues, Newark Airport. 403 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 3: Being limited to as few as twenty planes per hour. 404 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 3: This was as of. 405 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 2: Sunday, the average delay for arriving flights over three and 406 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 2: a half hours. I am just curious as to how 407 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 2: soon these things will kick back in and what happens. 408 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 2: Don't we have to redo this for November twenty first? 409 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 2: Isn't there another government shut down scheduled for November twenty first, 410 00:25:54,200 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 2: which is to say, another continuing resolution? That was the 411 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 2: date I thought we were looking at. By the way 412 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 2: being reported from Federal News Network, this coming out before 413 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 2: the weekend, agency is telling more than seven hundred thousand 414 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 2: federal employees that their time away will be extended another 415 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 2: thirty days. Commerce, Justice, Homeland, NASA, GSA, which is the 416 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 2: General Services Administration. They've sent out emails saying that you 417 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 2: are on furlough until November twenty ninth, the day after Thanksgiving. 418 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 2: Oh okay, I don't have the heart to sell my 419 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 2: mother that there's no way that the plane's gonna work. 420 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 2: No way the plane might work, there's just gonna be 421 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: no one to actually direct it. Oh is she going 422 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 2: to be angry? 423 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 3: Oh? This is very personal. 424 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 2: That is not going to be a fun conversation at all. 425 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 2: There's a part two conversation. This is about how people 426 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 2: feel about the economy. News Nation had this story, and 427 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 2: the story was about how Trump's approval. 428 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 3: Rating is down. Why is it down? 429 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 2: Because people feel they're worse off financially now than they 430 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 2: were in twenty twenty four. This was a poll from 431 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 2: News Nation and the Decision Desk Headquarters. Eleven hundred and 432 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 2: fifty nine people polled, let's walk through it if a 433 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 2: little bit. Thirty nine percent of the people eleven hundred 434 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: and fifty nine people were polled. Thirty nine percent said 435 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 2: they felt less economically secure a year over year was 436 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 2: twenty six percent said they felt better off. Thirty four 437 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: percent said neither better nor worse off. Now I'm looking 438 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 2: at the full poll results here of who it is 439 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 2: that they surveyed. It was Americans. I don't know if 440 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 2: they asked about political affiliation. The margin of error is 441 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 2: two point nine percent. So if you know me from 442 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: elections general elections, I really dismiss polls that don't that 443 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: have a higher than a three percent margin of error, MOE, 444 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 2: I dismissed polls that don't have at least a thousand 445 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 2: people in the poll. I move those two things to 446 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 2: the side, And I don't you know, the conversation registered 447 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: voters are likely voters always comes into play. So if 448 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 2: you take a look at the strongly approved and strongly 449 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 2: dis approve of President Trump, you find that that number 450 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 2: is basically fifty to forty nine approved to disapprove, it's 451 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 2: fifty to fifty. 452 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 3: Okay, do you approve of the. 453 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 2: Way that Trump administration is handling immigration policy? Well, this 454 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 2: has forty seven percent approved, fifty two percent disapprove, fifty 455 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 2: two percent disapprove. No, they're not talking about immigration policy. 456 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 2: They just don't like the fact that immigration policy involves 457 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 2: returning people to their country of origin. They claim they 458 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 2: want a safer border, but they don't actually want to 459 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 2: do the work that gets you. 460 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 3: A safer border. 461 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 2: There is a really interesting parallel to the story in 462 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:50,959 Speaker 2: the conversation of redistricting. But on the economics, when you 463 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: take a look at this, thirty nine percent feel less 464 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 2: economically secure, but twenty six percent and thirty four percent, 465 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 2: twenty or six percent feel better, thirty four percent no difference, 466 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 2: So you still have sixty percent saying that all is well. 467 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 3: I believe that to be the case. I also believe 468 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 3: that if you. 469 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 2: Don't recognize that taris have had an effect and the 470 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 2: economy isn't dreaming, that's silly. 471 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 3: The economy isn't dreamy, it's okay to say I would. 472 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 2: Still argue that people feel better off with Trump in 473 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: the White House because it creates more opportunity. Then it's 474 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: certainly anything with Biden and that full on malaise. Same 475 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 2: thing is true regarding Kamala Harris. But I'm not surprised 476 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 2: particularly by this. I don't think Americans are just dancing 477 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 2: all the way. 478 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 3: To the bank. 479 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 2: What's interesting is that the president's approval ratings forty one percent, 480 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 2: Republicans approval rating with likely voters is forty seven percent. 481 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 2: How weird because this is exactly the opposite of what 482 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 2: took place in the election in twenty twenty four where 483 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 2: Trump and you heard Sean Duffy talk about it. Trump 484 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 2: won all these swing states, that's correct, but the Senate 485 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 2: candidates didn't. Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, all swing states. 486 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 3: The Republican candidate for Senate. 487 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 2: Lost in all those states because the Trump brand was 488 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 2: bigger than the Republican brand. 489 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 3: Now we're seeing a reverse. Interesting. Interesting. 490 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 2: I think the president should be aware that people economically 491 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 2: are still not feeling everything is great. Gas prices are down, 492 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: no doubt, Egg prices are down, no doubt. Other prices 493 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 2: are still too danghaigh, And there is still what it 494 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 2: is we're spending because of terror. Wis it's hard to 495 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 2: get President Trump to get a conversation going about, Hey, 496 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: I know there's concern. Here's what we're doing. When the 497 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 2: tariff is the thing he loves the most, and he 498 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 2: thinks the tariff is responsible for all the good things 499 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 2: and all the good investment. 500 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 3: If it was a tactic. I'd agree with that, but. 501 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 2: Does this poll Is this an indicator of well democrats are. 502 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 3: Something to capitalize on. They could, but they're Democrats. 503 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 2: They're going to overplay their hand and they're going to 504 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 2: lose the position because they can't just be normal. They 505 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 2: want to go down this road.
